Long time ago in Bethlehem
shepherds in fields as they lay
heard ‘silent night’ sung by the choir of
Angels,
the Seraphim and Cherubim.
Then with joyful steps they sped
to that lowly manger tread
on bended knees did bow their heads
to salute the infant King of Kings.
A tiny star lit up the skies
as if the earth had never seen
such brilliance shone upon the earth,
they say this comes to pass when
special child is born
The hills and dales began to sing
And peace and calm was felt to ring
as rosy hues were settling in.
Blessed be that hour
That special morn
For Jesus Christ on earth was born
BLESSED CHRISTMAS
(Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year too)

Christmas! Xmas! But what is all about? The birth of Jesus! Okay, who is Jesus and why do we have to celbrate His birth? In other wards I think that Christmas or Xmas is more than hymns and ll the festivities! How I pray that you who have the power to write wrote s far as letting people know why Christmas. You can make it happen!
